I'm really happy with this 5th gen unit. Really slick. I am waiting on the Thunderbolt dock to become available. Right now I'm using the USB-3 Pro dock with two monitors.

Sweet. Three monitor action. I'm running with two over here, have always wanted that setup.

I just bought two new 24" monitors too. It's a nice setup. The only problem I'm having is getting my Stargazer camera to work with Windows Hello. When I first installed it, it worked fine. Now Windows Hello can't open the camera but it works fine in other apps. I'm working with their support now.

 

[James Falconer]

Cool. I'm sure others have run into the same issue. Might be worth checking our Windows Hello forum? The community might be able to help too!

Worth a shot!

You should really consider the USB-C dock. the only advantages to thunderbolt are the faster throughput and support for multiple 4k displays.

I have the 3rd generation one. It's a great computer! I maxed out the specs when I bought it. Love having a sim card built in. It's now 2 years old but still my daily driver

Does the 5th Generation X1 Carbon has a UHD screen option?
